If the RTO and hub strategy is going to be the answer to a significant number of Johns woes, where are the projected numbers to back it up? X dollars saved be X date. X dollars generated by X date as result of collaboration/synergy of being back in the office. X dollars saved by X locations closed by X date. Where is the business model so he can be held accountable for however it ends up going? He is out of real business ideas and there is no money left to do anything other than focus on employees and blame all his troubles on us. Where is the accountability or is this new plan based on a “feeling” he has it is going to somehow magically create a new line of revenue? How many chances does he get? Look in the mirror dude.

OP still trying to figure out if there is the same number of grains of rice in each bag of minute rice. If not, it’s a conspiracy.
“No RTO is not about headcount reduction, ok maybe a little. Hub city now that’s about headcount “
Hey Einstein
RTO = Hub City
Geezus, reading is elementary….
“ Just a coincidence that every major company is doing this now? No RTO is not about headcount reduction, ok maybe a little. Hub city now that’s about headcount reduction in a real sh---y way. Oh also he knows the oldies won’t move.”
Most ignorant statement of the week winner !
“This is not about RTO. For the 100th time it is a passive aggressive headcount reduction strategy. If you think otherwise you have not been watching and listening.”

No one but the executives knew what was going on at Enron until the very end…..
"where are the projected numbers to back it up?"
There are none.
"Where is the business model ...?"
There isn't one.
"...so he can be held accountable for however it ends up going? "
That's just funny. The man has literally lost 100B in shareholder value in like 5 years with zero consequence. Wake the f up.
Um, to investors (owners of the company through shares), they DO owe us information about how the company runs.
They even must publish earnings reports and strategy, etc. What an attitude you have.
If you were there appropriate management level to see them then you would be shown the numbers. Obviously you're not at the appropriate level and neither are probably 98% of the employees in the company. I'm not sticking up for the company here I'm just pointing out how ridiculous your request is. They don't owe you or me that information. Move along
This is not about RTO. For the 100th time it is a passive aggressive headcount reduction strategy. If you think otherwise you have not been watching and listening.
@kng+1o2LYHGi - You are so right. Hopefully you are part of the 50k. I am sure you are as worthless as the Stank!
I find it funny that they closed up many offices and are telling some employees to go to WeWork locations.
Only problem is that WeWork announced that they probably are going bankrupt.
This company can't do anything right.
Where does it say you are entitled to those numbers?
So why the frequent dog and pony shows? By your logic we should never even see them, just take our orders from the next guy up the chain.
Tell us you have a plan or don't tell us anything. But if you hire 100000 people, many for their analytical abilities, and tell them there's a plan without anything to back it up, expect questions and doubts. It's literally what they pay us to do.
If the end result is eliminating 50K jobs, I would consider the RTO policy a success. Rightsizing the business was well overdue.
It has nothing to do with entitlement. We are all stakeholders in this company. Management, employees, c-suite, stockholders, customers, all have skin in the game. Any of these stakeholders can go elsewhere, not just the employees. The whole point is the c-suite for 20 years has consistently failed to uphold their part which in turn has put every other stakeholder in a bad spot. It's not that the other stakeholders are entitled to know what's going on, the point is it shouldn't be a secret. The fact is even the c-suite doesn't know what's going on nor have they for 20 years.
Your right though, any one of the stakeholders in this company can move on. The employees are moving on, the management is moving on, the customers are moving on, but it's the c-suite that should be moving on before the company is completely decimated.
Where does it say you are entitled to those numbers?
Employment is doing as you are told. You can choose to move on.
